Quote:This'll seem pointed, but the biggest "LoL's" are coming out of this place. This game is the most critically acclaimed game in the entire series behind Heroes 2 and 3, it's winning multiple awards, it's several times more addictive than Heroes V, actually has a storyline and almost nobody here cares...

I cared enough to pre-order it... on one of the original release dates.

The art style grew on me, even though the zombie looks more cute than intimidating. It also got me a few chuckles here and there. And there's no denying how addictive it is.

Nice and tidy, addresses the points it should and explains the gameplay.

Being human is a roller coaster ride of emotions during rainstorms and sunshine, sprinkled with moments when you can almost reach the stars.

Reviewed very favorably, and compared to HoMM. Looks like a winner - wish I had a DS. ____________

Great game. I got stuck on the necro campaign though... My hero didn't gain life back after battles... gonna have to battle npcs with vamps to get life back.

But i did have the artie that does that equipped earlier. But i swapped it for the twilight urn for the Wraith Battle.

beat the game.

Here is my rating.

Story 8/10 - its good but the last chapter felt rushed, you didn't run around and explore or anything and talking to npcs was one of the better experiences.
Gameplay - 9/10 Solid, addictive gameplay but for some battles without the right combination of units its nigh impossible unless you get lucky.
(secret units). other than that its fairly well balanced. Some artifacts are superior to others but in all there is not a unit thats impossible to use well.
Presentation - 10/10 - Not messy at all. has a consistent style and atmosphere all around. the music fits it.

I take back what I said about this game. Although there are still some minor elements that I felt didn't really fit with heroes 5, it got a solid connection and the races traits are largely the same.
Most of all, it's a great combat system and the variety in the campaign with having special objectives in some fights is great.

It's a shame it doesn't have WiFi but that goes for many DS games.

In ur base killing ur doods... and raising them as undeads.

It's a mercy they're not porting it to PC as the mindless online-only policy would screw with the game's well-deserved good press.
